Your TFI is not firing like it's supposed to When you remove the spout the computer no longer has control of the timing it is supposed to revert to 10ﾟ base Since that's not happening we have to do it this way
Based on that picture adjust the distributor tell its center and then use the trigger wizard to set the timing
ok well its centered to the best of center that my eyeballs can get.. well lets see what happens now
well mine landed on 13.50 and thats 20degrees.. i hammered out autotune for 3 blocks on easy cause it was super lean.. then normal for a few blocks didnt go far.. up the road and back
well i hope i didnt just mess something up driving it cause i didnt see that last message.... i got the rotor centered on #1 then set my timing to 20 using fixed timing.. and now that i think of it... i didnt pull the spout.. ughh great..
well i guess im gonna go out and pull the spout and see if it shuts off or not... god dammit. i tell ya ill never do this again.
You wont pull the spout, 13.5 is fine. That's just the lowest timing advance you can run is all.
you realize that i meant 13.50 in trigger wizard meant 20 degrees on fixed timing right?? not its set at 13.50 base timing. lol i just caught that
and i was lookin over my datalog from the drive.. so according to my initial values table " it think that what controls my idle valve when hot in closed loop" thats the table my idle valves supose to follow right.. cause i noticed my valve is only open to about 13.4-19 ish.. and i have it set to be open about 30ish... so from what happend before with my car when i had the throttle body screw out to much.. should i sync my table up to my throttle body screw again..
No, that table is used as a simple lookup table for when you go into closed loop, it is meant to give the idle valve a starting point. The goal is to get the valve into a position over what is needed then it will smoothly transition into cl idle.
ahh ok well then what would be causing my idle valve to be closing while at idle... before it held at around 20.1 but it was lower until i adjusted my tb . and i figured its the same idea now... cause i havnt really touched that screw yet.. except for a 1/2 turn when starting the car. k well i guess i gotta look over my tune and see where abouts my idle valve should be sitting at idle.
and i guess trickflow stage one cams pull crap for vaccuum.. i was kinda hoping for abit lower MAP. been searchin the net to see if theres any info on that cam and the amount of vac it pulls. but i guess with a lobe sep of 110. it wouldnt pull high vac.
whats the range between offsets thats allowable>?. after i got my car hot i had to readjust the offset to get the timing to match trigger wizard.. had to bump it up to 15ish from 13.50.. isnt there a range in offset that works best?
after i did that 25degree check where the rotor was pointing thing. it seems i may have went alittle to far.
